Such a charming, upbeat song I love every part of this
This has gotta be my favourite Talking Heads album, just totally awesome jams all the way though. The only negative to this album is how good the SMS versions are in comparison.
The black sheep of Duran Duran's 80s output. Every listen, I love this album more, definitely a "comfort album" I can always rely on enjoying. The stuff here is so experimental and awesome that I can't help but appreciate every note. Kind of a "greater than the sum of its parts" kind of album for me. Never understood the hate for this one, I think it's amazing.
Awesome 80s synth pop. It’s catchy, atmospheric and cinematic I love it. It does slip off a bit near the end, but the rest is fantastic. Electric Blue also is just one of the greatest 80s songs in my opinion.
1. Crazy (95)
2. Electric Blue (100)
3. Nothing Too Serious (92)
4. Man of Colours (83)
5. Heartbreak Kid (81)
6. The Kingdom (90)
7. My Obsession (85)
8. Girl in the Moon (88)
9. Everybody’s War (72)
10. Sunrise (72)
The singles really carried this album in my opinion. The rest, at least after first listen, didn’t really leave much of an impact (minus Mother of course!) Pretty decent album though, very very unique. Those singles I mentioned before (plus Synchronicity I) are excellent by the way.
Edit- Yeah, this one grew on me a bit.
